Parties driving into Greenfield from the northeast part of the county claim that the road leading from East Greenfield down to Brandywine creek at the north corporation line has a very offensive odor. Some parties who have been hauling away night soil and other filth in boxes and barrels have dumped it out on the road east of the creek, and it is not only offensive to the smell and sight, but dangerous in other particulars. Horses have scared at the unsightly aud evil-smelling filth and several runaways have been narrowly averted. The city and county officials should am.-1, these violaters of the law and see that they are properly punished.

GREENFIELD, INDIANA, THURSDAY, APRIL 11,i»95. ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR
A CHARMING RECEPTION
A DELIGHTFUL DINNER AND A DANCE
Given by Mr. and Mrs. 8. It. Wells at their .Beautiful Home on West Main Street, Frldaj' the 5th.
One of the most brilliant and enjoyable society functions of the year was the afternoon reception and 7 o'clock dinner at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. S. R. Wells on West Main street, Friday. The lovely April day, with the well grounded anticipations of an enjoyable afternoon, resulted in an almost continuous stream of guests to and from the house between the hours of two to six. The lady guests who seemed to vie with each other in their elegant reception toilettes, never appeared to better advantage and seemed to enjoy the occasion exceedingly.
The beautifully decorated rooms thronged with guests made a gay scene. The floral decorations were lavish and handsome—just enough and not too much as to appear ostentatious. The drawing room where Mrs. Wells received her guests, assisted by Mrs. John Wells, of Indianapolis, was entirely in delicate shades of pink. The summit of the tall mantle was graced by a large royal Worcester rose bowl of spicy nodding pink carnations, with trailings of smilax reflecting their dainty leaves and stems in the mirror below. A handsome brats and onyx stand held an immense bowl of La-France roses.
The hostess was very becomingly gowned in black satin with yellow satin sleeves under black silk net. Mrs. John Wells also woie black satin with jet pessimentra trimmings.
Delicate asparagus vines ran riot around the oaken pillars and in and out through the fret-work which separated the drawing room from the music room. This room was in warm velvety shades of red and heavy with the perfume of American beauty roses and scarlet carnations. Here Mrs. W. W. Cook and Mrs. D. B. Cooper served chocolate and coffee. Mrs. Cook wore a gown of scarlet chiffon and China silk, while Mrs. Cooper was charming in black silk skirt with light green silk waist.
The library was in white and green. Moss green ribbons and emilax curtained off a cozy corner in the bow window, which with waiving palms, Bermuda and calla
lillies
formed a most delightful
retreat, and suggested cheerful thoughts of the new year in its early spring beauty. An immense ball of lillies caught up the dainty custains of ribbon and smilax at the top, beneath which stood Miss Ella Marsh, gowned charmingly in black satin, with Hunter's green ribbons, and serving in her own dainty manner the most deliicous frozen punch in delicate cut-glass cups, and assisted by Mrs. Elbert Tyner, who wore black crepon skirt, with light green Persian waist.
Bride roses, white carnations, lillies and delicate traceries of smilax furnished the floral decorations. The controlling colors in the dining room were white and yellow. Heavy garlands of smilax were fastened from the chandalier to each corner of the large room. Under the center of the chandalier huug a large wicker basket of Marchiel Neil roses. An immense bowl of calla lillies stood on the top of the china cabinet, while the large side-board was decorated in yellow chrysanthemums, palms and ferns. Mrs. Jerome Kaley. in a beautiful costume of yellow organdie, designed in pansies, served the salids.
Mrs I. P. Poulson, in a gown of black and red striped silk, assisted in entertaining the guests in the drawing room.
Miss Lou Crawford, in delicate green china silk with tiny designs of pink honeysuckle blossoms, assisted in the coffee room.
Numerous gold and silver candelabra, holding tapers of the prevailing colors. Banquet lamps, with silken shades and soft lights, lent a charmingly sweet effect. In a cozy nook on the second landing of the stairway Montani's orchestra rendered continuous music throughout the afternoon and evening, which helped to speed the happy hours away rill too fcoon.
Mr. and Mrs. Wells had issued invitations to a seven o'clock dinner to the assist''ug ladies and their husbands, with the addition of Mr. and Mtfs. Eph Marsh, Mr. and Mrs. E.P. Thayer, Jr. and Messrs O. O. Souders and Ray Geary.
At frix o'clock the elegant carpets were canvassed for the evening dance, and at seven dinner was served.
An elaborate cuisine had been prepared by an Indianapolis chef, and was admirably served in seven courses.
On the outer edge of the floral table decorations were arranged, tiny bouquets, to which were attached narrow green ribbons leading down to each plate, at the other end of which were tied tasty little bunches of pansies. Taking hold of the pansies each guest could then draw to themselves the little bouquet. After dinner the evening was spent in dancing, fourteen numbers being on .the program. The guests lingered until the "wee small hours," and bade their host and hostess good night with the pleasing impression of having spent a truly delightful afternoon and evening.
